C B A G F G
Everywhere you look there was confusion, violence, drama & drugs

C B A G F
So many righteous revolutionaries spouting Utopian love

E A
Everyone shrouded in a purple haze

E A
Then one day they woke up from their dream state

B C
They found themselves no more at peace than before

D
older, meek, and conformed

C G A E F D
Empty causes, a bluster for the soul, a fix for the mind

C G A E F G C G
Empty causes, cling to everything you find

C B A G F G
The shots rang out like popcorn and the chief was hid and rushed out of sight

C B A G F
The mohawk-chain, leather brigade rejoiced maliciously on that night

E A
Someone cried out "fuck the government"

E A
His mates couldn't define what he meant

B C D
So no one gave him the time of day and the scene died away

C G A E F D
Empty causes, a war for the body and an army in the mind

C G A E F G C
Empty causes, losing steam as time goes by

F G C B A
Could it be that everybody selfishly desires

A F C
Their own personal retinue

F G C B A
And the causes are just manifestations of too much time

F D
And far too little to do
